Re: Smokey Point still around?
SPD is for the most part our LDS, With the limited inventory it doesnt look good, but from what we hear they are going to be restocking with many new gadgets and suits etc. We sure hope so, as of right now we are trying to get a drysuit for the wife, so we of course went there first, but they only h...

Re: Mukiteo Monday Madness 1/4/09
I am going to try and make at least the second dive at the t-dock, not sure I will be able to get there in time for the dive at the wall. My drysuit is in for a neck seal replacement, so I will have to dive wet, (another factor that I am still trying to decide if I want to do) Sheahan, if you need t...

Re: D400 regulator and SmartCom advice needed

Re: Different drysuits - which one for me?
LCF and airsix, thank you for your input. LCF, one thing I definitely want to avoid - is wasting money on the drysuit, so while budget is tight - I would still prefer to go with the warmest option even if it sets us back for a few months. Thank you for such a detailed decription of different types. ...

Re: Different drysuits - which one for me?
Mattleycrue76, thank you for your response. I fit into traditional sizes, it's confusing at times since the "M" means different things with various brands. Budget is tight, that's why that Mares seemed like a good option. Are you saying I can still put regular undergarment (like the one un...

Different drysuits - which one for me?
Now that Mrs and Mr Tumbleweed are working rigorously to get out of the tumbleweed status, I have an advice to kindly ask of you, folks. Last week my husband (owner of a drysuit) and myself (renter of a wetsuit) went out for a few dives in Edmonds and Mukilteo. To my shame and despair -I think I hav...

Re: D400 regulator and SmartCom advice needed
You can't buy scubapro parts kits easily - they are only sold through shops by and large. They are rarely available off the internet if you have the right connections. So its unlikely you will be able to "pre-buy" a service kit for the D400 and use it later. In all likelihood you will nee...

OMG, I love this thread - so informative - now I know that some folks heard of or know about Mamaliga!
I spent my childhood on the Black Sea (Odessa, Ukraine), never as a diver so would not have an input other than what I read on other forums; have fun in Romania!

His instructor during OW class recommended them and then contacted Pauline and the crew to assure that even though he was brand new and they do cater to more experienced divers - that he was likely to do great.
